If people think I am gay, yeah, hey that doesn't bother me. Not at all. What would people think? To me I am such a heterosexual guy. It doesn't even, I don't even think about it.

I think the sooner that all of us in society stop accepting any type of bullying or harassment from other people - in spite of people's social standing or net worth or whatever it is - the sooner it will stop.
When I was 16, everyone else got a car; I got a motorcycle.
I love Canada. I am from Canada. I will bash the Canadian government but never Canada.
Well, any time you're faced with fame on that level, it's - it can be somewhat unnerving because you're never taught how to manage it and how to deal with it. So you're sort of left out there on your own, trying to navigate those waters for yourself.
You never appreciate your anonymity until you don't have it anymore.
Never categorize yourself, society does that to you, don't do it to yourself.
I never exceed the posted speed limit.
Everything about Canada makes me proud to be Canadian.
Dave Foley and I have been friends for a very long time. We both actually have the same lawyer in Toronto.
As an actor, your focus is very finite. All you're worried about is your character and what you have to do, what your goals are in this scene and in this piece of material. Whereas, as the director, everything is your responsibility. I enjoy carrying the load like that and being the responsible party.
Part of the fun of working on 'Beverly Hills, 90210,' for me, was that I got a lot of freedom from our executive producer, Chuck Rosen, to add things, change things. I got a lot of freedom to be creative.
Nothing scares me, because I used to think I was indestructible. Now I know I'm indestructible, not to mention my spine is indestructible. It's all titanium.
That's the power of television. You come into people's homes every week, and that creates a familiarity and a false sense of intimacy.
I love a Coffee Crisp, and they are nowhere to be found in America.
I come from a very blue-collar family, and a very hardworking family, and I think that my work ethic is maybe the thing that kept me on the straight and narrow.
I've always aspired to Cary Grant's level of coolness and failed miserably.
I think it's great now that we seem to be in an era where it's OK to be gay and I think that the society in North America has had more of a problem with it than any other society.
I love filming in Britain.
My kids are my greatest achievement.
Los Angeles is a one-horse town. It's entirely driven by the entertainment business and that's what it is.
It's a really big deal to have a star on the Walk of Fame; it feels like an incredible achievement.
I think the moral majority and religious right have been shrinking and having not quite as loud a voice in America, and all of a sudden people are coming to their own realizations going, 'Joe down the street is gay and he's a great guy.'
I'm from Canada and my wife is from St. Albans, so I feel a great kinship with the Brits.
One of the fun things about being an actor is stepping outside yourself and outside of your own experience. It's challenging yourself to totally commit to something that in your core is so wrong.
When you say '90210,' everyone knows what you're talking about. So why not make use of that? And they certainly have. I think the show looks beautiful, and all the actors are doing a great job. It's a tangled web they've created thus far. It's great.
I'm very happy to be directing though. It's a challenge, and it's a lot of fun for me to be on set.
Well, I've been a professional racer for nine years. And if I could get it to pay me as much as acting, I'd give up all the rest in a second. Working in television, however, has made me accustomed to a certain lifestyle that I'd like to maintain.
I miss my boats, and I miss having the ability to be out on the water during the daytime and then go skiing at night.
No one gave me a cake or a going-away party on my last day of 'Beverly Hills 90210.'
I love being a husband and a father. That aspect of my life has been a joy.
I played hockey my whole life until my ambition outstripped my ability, which happens to most Canadians around 15 or 16 years old.
I was a rugby player, I was a hockey player. You know, I just love to challenge myself, and I love to compete.
I feel like acts of violence against women are detestable, and they need to be dealt with, and they are important.
Theatre was the first thing I fell in love with.
Obviously musical theatre is not my thing, but dramatic theatre is much more up my alley.
Any time you get to do a David Mamet play, it's a great opportunity. His writing is such that I think it's a big challenge, but when you get it right, it's a great opportunity to play every night, really.
I'm definitely not a song-and-dance guy, and if you've ever heard me sing, you would understand that, 'No, maybe that's not your thing.'
From an early age, I knew I wanted to pursue a life in the arts, and so I was acting in plays all throughout high school.
By the time I graduated from high school in Vancouver, I already had a whole support network set up for me in Los Angeles, so I just moved down.
Sitcoms are fun. The whole multi-cam genre is always a lot of fun. You throw a live audience in the mix, and it's even better.
I try to be smart with my comedy. Generally, it devolves into bathroom humour. I describe my comedy as, 'I have the best intentions, but usually it fails.'
